Podcast 384: Republi-Go-Round

Had a lot to talk about this week; so much so that I needed to break it up into 2 segments!

In this week’s (over 2 hour) main segment, I delve into the many gaffes and the constantly rotating Poll-Merry-Go-Round that is the GOP field of Presidential candidates. To help illustrate my point, I incorporated some audio montages of a few personal favorites, while detailing my belief as to why the majority of them could never be considered serious candidates in a General election…but perhaps just fun to “flirt” with in the primaries, before voters grow up and pick someone who actually has a reasonable chance of winning.

I fully admit that I have a little fun at the expense of the likes of Cain, Perry, Gingrich, Romney and the (irrelevant) others…but they make is so damn easy considering their history of comments, contradictions, flubs and flip flops.

I also discuss how I see the most qualified candidate – Jon Huntsman – getting the nomination. It is unlikely, but I do see a path.

Lastly, I share my opinions of the Penn State scandal, including audio from Jerry Sandusky’s (strange & creepy) interview with Bob Costas.
